Michelle: GOP Would Curb Freedom of Speech, Religion

In a chilling appraisal of President Obama’s Republican opposition, First Lady Michelle Obama Thursday suggested a Republican victory in the 2012 presidential election would result in curbs on freedom of speech and religion.

Speaking at a fundraiser at a private residence in Tampa, Mrs. Obama noted the power of the president to appoint members of the Supreme Court. She clearly indicated that a Republican would select justices who would attack basic First Amendment rights, saying, “that’s what’s at stake” in the election.

From the White House transcript:

Let’s not forget about what it meant when my husband appointed those two brilliant Supreme Court justices — (applause) — and for the first time in history, our daughters — and our sons — watched three women take their seats on our nation’s highest court. (Applause.) But more importantly, let’s not forget the impact those decisions will have on our lives for decades to come — on our privacy and security, on whether we can speak freely, worship openly, and love whomever we choose. That is what’s at stake here. (Applause.)

Mrs. Obama’s contention that Republican justices would curtail people’s abilities to “love whomever we choose” appears to suggest Republicans would go beyond opposition to gay marriage and move to limit gay relationships. President Obama himself claims he opposes gay marriage, so her suggestion that Republican-selected justices would jeopardize the ability to “love whomever we choose” cannot possibly refer to gay marriage.

As she has previously, Michelle also posits racism on the part of Republicans, indicating their policies would lead to discrimination against children based on “what they look like.”

Will we be a country where opportunity is limited to just the few at the top? Who are we? Or will we give every child a chance to succeed no matter where they’re from, or what they look like or how their money parents are — have. Who are we?

Your logic is deeply flawed. Expressing the desire for someone to shut up is not the same as passing a law prohibiting speech. When I say that people should not wear hats inside, that is not the same as passing a law requiring the removal of headgear indoors.

Anyone finding MOOchell Obama a national embarassment, or who takes issue with her lies, is a RACIST? This woman is a menace. Not because she is black, but because she is an abrasive and irrelevant moron. Where have you been for three years??

No No Moe, Let her talk. She is one of our better helpers in getting Obama OUT. I believe (based on her on words and nothing else) that Michelle is a racist; and, that sitting under that so-called “Reverend” Wright’s teaching only fueled a fire that was already in her belly.

The Left-Winged Demoncraps (Socialists/Marxists) have done more to weaken the greatest nation on Earth that any outside enemy could have every done. (Go back a read the Communists Manisfesto.) We would have killed any outsider that was not from our country that came in to America and tried this…O, wait…I forgot about Obama’s “Birth Certificate.”

I suspect, as in most households where religion is of secondary importance, the wife determines WHERE worship is celebrated, and the husband just goes along to keep the peace [and sleeps through the sermon.]

All indications are that Moochelle is the driving force in the Hate America campaign. Of course, that’s not to relieve Pres. “Yo-mamma” of the responsibility for allowing his children to sit through those diatribes for their whole lives. Imagine how twisted their minds will be by the time they grow up.

To Car in: You are absolutely correct. Well said; me too. You can always tell EXACTLY what the liberals/socialists/communists are doing because they always accuse someone else of doing it. And the useful idiots believe them, vote for them again, and then the liberals/socialists/communists get to do it all over again. See the DVD: Agenda:Grinding America Down.

Please someone grow a pair and answer that very question… Who is Barack Obama and Michelle Obama.. we can tell she is a very bitter woman. you would think she would be the happiest woman in the entire world. Her look is hard and bitter…. He is a cold as an ice burg… i feel sad for those 2 cute girls…Great question… WHO ARE THEY???

Should be answered first. His phoney “certificate of birth” is still being looked at and when he is a proven fraud.

All the bills and laws he has signed into law will be invalidated….

”GO BIRTHERS” and I am going to free speech now..’GOD BLESS AMERICA’ now and forever when we get rid of this Muslim raised un=American ass’… Why does the Koran say it is okay to lie to get what you want???? How many times has he lied to us and still continues to do so and ‘she’ is spreading her tripe and trash, is she proud of ”our” country yet ?????????????.

I’m with Car in on the outrage fatigue. She makes the most outrageous comments. Can’t believe she is more popular than him on shakedown circuit…

Read a recap of her 3 Florida campaign cash stops in the DC. She is also calling for violence…This is going to require each of you to grab somebody by the shoulders and make them understand what’s at stake…

Yes she is soooooo popular..what a lying sack. — and for the first time in history, our daughters — and our sons — watched three women take their seats on our nation’s highest court.– So what were the previous FEMALE justices? She obviously drinks too much because she seems to be too clueless.

What world does she live in as she really never was proud of America. This clown has done more to divide and destroy America than anyone else. My guess is her hatred for America spewed by her and Rev. Wright and others are some of the reason behind Obama’s quest to destroy America as we know it.

Lets make 2012 the last time we need to see her ugly mug and spewing of hatred to anyone not of her ilk.

Who in their right mind would listen, nevermind believe anything this woman has to say. She and her failure of a president husband have been lying to us over and over again! It’s the prisident who has been trying to silence free speech and feeding the fire of racism in the country! What a disgrace they are!

“let’s not forget the impact those decisions will have on our lives for decades to come — on our privacy and security, on whether we can speak freely, worship openly, and love whomever we choose. That is what’s at stake here.”

I don’t think the GOP is trying to restrict our freedom. Of course, the race card had to be played. It is getting old.

Mrs. Obama is no better than her husband. The only thing both of them can do is drum up fear. The Republicans have never tried to limit free speech or religion. The new members of congress were elected because they believe in upholding the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. The man we have in the oval office believes he is king and can do everything by executive order. If anyone is taking away basic freedoms, it’s Obama. Look at the healthcare bill. These people are void of truth. I can only hope people are not hoodwinked again like they were in 2008.

Please, take a look at the impact and the attempts and the attempted attacks that have been made to curb our 1st ammendment rights by this administration. Let’s not forget the lack of a National Day of Prayer in 2011 and the Muslim prayer session that was held in Washington DC instead. We are watching Mrs. Obama

I don’t ever remember any of the former first ladies bad mouthing fellow Americans the way this one does. The Obama’s have failed this country because they are really cheap political hacks who treat anyone that disagrees with them as their enemies. 2012 gives us all an opporturnity to correct our 2008 mistake.

It keeps getting better and better. Now, once again we have Michelle preaching to us about how “mean” we are especially if one is a Republican.

Folks, we are just witnessing the exploratory shots “across the bow” by Democrats and in the coming weeks, it will expand exponentially into a full blown onslaught against Republicans and conservatives while Obama, Michelle, Reid, Pelosi, Schumer, and the ENTIRE MSM, entertainment industry, and every liberal magazine out there picks up the baton and continues with the labeling of Republicans as evil as Satan and in the end, even Hitler will be more acceptable than a Republican.

The Alinsky playbook is in full force with this new brand of liberals and it will succeed. Why? Because they have been able to marginalize Fox News and talk radio like never before. The common accepted name for Fox News is not Faux News. Even on moderate websites, they are using the term to describe Fox.

The White House has finally become an enemy of the freedoms of America instead of being a protector and friend.

Obama will be re-elected and if the trend continues, Democrats will keep control of the Senate and pick up enough seats to have a 50/50 split in the House.

Agree they are kicking the Alinsky tactics into full gear, but disagree that they will be successful. The tsunami of real hope and change — to restore our Constitutional Republic — will hit them full force on November 6th of 2012.

“GOP Would Curb Freedom of Speech, Religion” – based on WHAT exactly, Michelle?! Did you get this ‘revelation’ from the same source your husband got the declaration that ‘Unemployment would not rise above 8%’ or that we would face ‘economic Armageddon’ if we did not pass his failed ‘Stimulus’ bill? Or perhaps you obtained that ‘pearl of wisdom’ from the same place VP Biden got his epiphany that the numbers of murders and rapes will drastically rise if President Obama’s Jobs Bill does not pass? Thank you for demonstrating once again that this administration relies heavily on the political tactic of ‘fear mongering’ to obtain Americans’s support!

When the answer man proves to have no answers that produce results then it is time to employ the fear card. Just wait, the race card is in the wings waiting to be played next. They did not listen in November 2010 and thank God they are not listening now. So much for ” brilliance”. Possibly the dumbest administration I have witnessed since I began voting in the 1970’s. I am a reformed Democrat and it is because of Democrat/Liberals/Progresssives ( or whatever they call themselves this week) I escaped from this party of hypocrites. Keep it up Dems, you will lose the rest of us.

President Obama has tried to change the term “freedom of religion” to “freedom of worship” in order to begin curtailing the rights of people to practice their faith, in word or deed, outside of the act of worship. I wonder if anyone actually believes what Michelle Obama is saying.

This individual does not understand that her husband’s policies are what keep people oppressed. You don’t get freedom in a box. You don’t get it from others. You get it only in your own heart through Jesus Christ and that is not by your own works. You think you’re happy but, you’re not and will never be; unless you turn your life over to Jesus and let Him in your heart. Stop being covetous of others’ wealth, home(s), car(s), wive(s) and everything else. It is THEIRS and NOT YOURS. Get right with God and get your own stuff. And, STUFF DOES NOT BRING HAPPINESS!! You don’t get PEACE trying to live life your own way. Turn your life over to God and let Him turn it around for you.

Are you kidding me? Curb freedom of religion? These creeps don’t want any religion at all. I don’t know if this is a sit com or a horror movie. Please: Hurry up November 2012 so she can go back to the hole she crawled out of.

Hey Michelle, you B! You left out lynching black people and burning their churches too! Go back to your french fries, hoe your garden, and please, keep your racist ideas off the airways. They are offensive!

Funny how liberals see everything 180° out of phase with reality. They like to accuse everyone else of what they themselves are guilty of. Oh, and the day that Moochelle’s opinions will have any relevance will be the day that pigs fly.

I will not vote for any Republican or any Democrat for any office ever again. The Dem/Reps have failed to represent the people, and the Constitution, for more than sixty years and it is time to replace them with politicians who actually believe in our Constitutional Republic. If we do not replace them soon, there will be nothing left of our Constitution or our Liberty.

Is it just me, or is it a habit of the liberal mind to accuse an opponent of the dark thoughts that drive liberal angst and self-loathing?

The undercurrent driving the conservative agenda these days is a return to our constitutional roots. The freedom to speak freely, and the prohibition of government to involve itself in religion are central elements of that document.

gee, i though it was her husband’s Marxist administration who was stiffling free speech and freedom of religion with their attempts to destroy the church and regulate the internet, airwaves and political parties’ contributions…

liar, liar. pants on fire. (sorry, had to put it in terms liberals could understand)

I am offender! Michelle speaks like we are still asleep in the sofas, flipping channels,watching Jersey Shore..WE are UP Mochelle! Defending”Freedom of speech” coming from your Marxist mouth?..you truly believe you are talking to a bunch of stupid..
